Not that many Georgia folks own the plantations much less have the money to pay the fees to hunt such places. The folks who own plantations often commute to Thomasville and Albany by private jets. Just so happens my friend at this point of his life realizes he can't take it with him and he couldn't possibly spend it all if he tried. I'm not sure if Chokee still offers the wild bird hunts to the public but that's one of the places h he has hunted, but not this year. He also owns 6500 acres of quail property near here, but on one tract it's early season released birds on 1500 acres; on 5000 acres 60 miles from the 1500, he's attempting to resurrect wild bird populations with a plan formulated by Tall Timbers. Neither place are within 200 miles of SW Ga. Gil
